Looking for info
I'm looking for a coin-collecting dork err...uhh...currency enthusiast who knows something about wheat pennies from the early fifties. A friend found one the other day that looked brand new, but appeared to be made of brass. I just thought it was unique...I'd love to know about it if anybody has a clue.

Al Franken is On a Roll
Looks like Franken has outraised Senator Norm Coleman and his primary challenger:
Franken, a comedian-turned-candidate, announced Monday he had pulled in $1.9 million in the second quarter of the year, covering April through June. Last week, Coleman, R-Minn., said he had raised about $1.6 million in the period, and Democrat Mike Ciresi said he had raised $750,000.

According to Franken's campaign, more than 95 percent of his contributions in the last reporting period were $100 or less.

Franken is one of my favorite Democrats. I've been excited about his candidacy since he announced it on his radio show. He's a populist running in what is arguably the most populist state in the country. And let's not forget that Coleman's popularity isn't that great - he's widely believed to be one of the most endangered incumbents in 2008.

I'll certainly be watching this one...

Sheehan: Distinct Chance Of Staged Attack, Martial Law

Cindy Sheehan, the famous Peace Mom who recently expressed her intention to run against Nancy Pelosi in San Francisco, says there's a "distinct possibility" that America will be hit with another staged terror attack that will allow Bush to enact the martial law provisions he recently signed into law.

"I definitely think that is a distinct possibility, that there will be some kind of attack whether it's manufactured or real....I think it's really possible that these people will do that - why would he [Bush] put in that presidential directive if he didn't need to use it - I think it's really really frightening," Sheehan told The Alex Jones Show.
"Does anybody think that [Bush's] recent presidential decision directive wasn't for declaring martial law and suspending elections - that's why they have to be stopped," added Sheehan.

It is increasingly clear to me, her son (Casey) joined the military to get as far away from this raving loon as he could.

The real irony here is, this goofy old bag doesn't even understand her remarks would get her shot or jailed in Venezuela or Cuba.

Oh how cute!
Apparently, one of Fort Wayne's "Brain Trust" members must think that you can actually find a bag of Cannabis by searching Google or the Yellow Pages.


Hint for the next searcher: Go to the Brass Rail. It's a bar just north of the big GE building on Broadway. I actually saw a guy shooting smack there one night...plus, I was only 19 and had just been served my 8th beer of the evening (they never asked for any ID). Pretty much anything goes in that joint. If all else fails, check the parking lot at Snickerz about 40 minutes before they open the stage area for seating. There's always somebody out there getting stoned before the show.

Of course, there is also the fact that if you're dumb enough to think you can just Google "where to find illegal weed in Fort Wayne," you probably won't recognize the smell of it well enough to find what you're looking for.

Anyway, good luck!

PLEASE, you obsessive-compulsive jackasses...














STOP MOWING YOUR LAWNS!


It's dead already...repeatedly forging new mower tracks in a straw field to make patterns doesn't look good. You can continue to scalp your poor grass until October, but unless we get some rain or you start irrigating, it's still going to look like shit. Park the mower, Hank Hill.


It's been almost a month since I mowed my lawn (you know, about the time the rain basically stopped), and guess what? It's a little shaggy, but it's green and you can walk on it without cutting your feet.
